— “cheater!”
that word was like music to his ears. turning his head, he watched as tommy quickly flew up from his seat. nobody spoke up once knowing tommy would be quick to kick their ass. as relatively calm and collected as he looked on the outside, his lip couldn’t help but twitch just slightly, a bit of a wicked look in his eyes -- then gone in an instant. he tried to be good. though sometimes it was just too easy to cause a bit of trouble along the path towards righteousness. he stood from hsi spot.
“that’s all, tommy?” he said as he wandered closer towards his cousin, voice low enough to mainly catch tom’s ears. words not meant for anyone else. “that’s all you’re going to do to stick up for your brother? if someone said that to will, i’d-” he considered his words, considered that others might be listening in on his conversation with tommy. “i would make them feel sorry.”
say he was playing the devil’s advocate - or just trying to be a bit of a devil himself - but fred found more amusement in the idea of what could come out of this. fighting was off the cards in flintlock, he knew that. he doubted anything would come out of this meeting except hurt feelings (and possibly people holding tommy back from cutting a man’s tongue out). still, it was only fitting of fred to go against what eddie had grumbled; rules were always meant to be broken in his eyes.
he looked out at the other people. “who said it?” pointing to a (completely random) npc, he ventured, “it was you, wasn’t it?”
